It ought to be an exe file. I'll bet the file is corrupt - there's no reason why the file extension should have changed. Another possibility is that the file didn't finish downloading (you're using a download accelerator, so you can probably continue where you left off.) If all else fails, I would just re-download the file.

The problem is some download accelerator programs require you extract the file in their program space.

Think of it as a .zip file that only that accelerator program recognizes.
